A student takes a true-false test that has 10 questions and guesses randomly at each answer. Let X be the number of questions answered correctly. Find P(Fewer than 3). Round your answer to 2 decimal places.

P(Fewer than 3) = 0.05.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a student takes a true-false test that has 10 questions and guesses randomly at each answer.

The above situation can be represented through Binomial distribution;

where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 10 questions

            r = number of success = fewer than 3

           p = probability of success which in our question is probability

                that question is answered correctly, i.e; 50%

LET X = Number of questions answered correctly

So, it means X ~ Binom(n = 10, p = 0.50)

Now, Probability that Fewer than 3 questions are answered correctly is given by = P(X < 3)

P(X < 3)  = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)

=  

=  

=  0.05

Hence, the P(Fewer than 3) is 0.05.

4 candies

step-by-step explanation:

7 x 28 = 196

200 - 196 = 4 candies remaining.
